The Russia/alt-right alliance is getting nervous. Taking down a president candidate makes sense (Clinton) but if they are so scared that they are down to attacking individual Congresspersons, they must know the end is near. Nothing more dangerous than a wounded animal.
The non-descript Twitter accounts pushing this new "Sharia Law" theory to try and terrify Trumpettes to turn their hatred on Waters just screams of Russian Trolling............. Here's a few gems. Tell me you don't think these are Russians!

The good news is once you weed through the Russian trolls the vast majority of people posting to the topic actually SUPPORT Waters and are calling out the bullshit.
